Winona Ryder

It'd be hard counting how many times someone's said "Beetlejuice" since Tim Burton's film of the same name came out in 1988, but you'd think it would be enough times to warrant a reappearance, wouldn't you?

They call it "The First Commandment of Getting Inked": Never get your significant other's name tattooed anywhere on your body. You never know when things might end, and if they do, you might find yourself scarred for life – literally. (Or maybe not...)

Reality Bites turns 20 on Tuesday, which means the Gen-X classic is just a few short years away from chain-smoking and pontificating about post-college consumerism.

Two decades later, the film has become a '90s touchstone, as well as an underrated romcom classic – just whisper the name "Troy Dyer" to a woman over 30 and you'll be treated to an elaborate analysis on the romantic appeal of dudes in bands.

Winona Ryder is making a grand return to the spotlight, and she's sharing some tricks of the trade she's learned along the way.

For one: Just say no to nibbling scenes. While filming the lesser-known 1990 teen comedy Welcome Home, Roxy Carmichael, Ryder, then 19, says she learned this the hard way.
